Comment:

 This proposed solution is invalid, as Yahoo ID's may have `@` in them.  A
 classic example is the `@sbcglobal.net` ID's given to SBC DSL customers.
 Intentionally ignoring this case is unacceptable.

 That said, the handling of adding MSN buddies to a Yahoo account has been
 added for Pidgin 2.6.0 by enabling the use of
 `msn/someaddress at hotmail.com` to add the buddy.  This ''will not work''
 until 2.6.0.
